#i will quickly ramble#this guy i really like#he was being v nice to me since the beginning ever since we became friends#and he'd always go that extra mile w me doing stuff for me#but people started shipping us#and then he got distant randomly#and today somehow was the d-day and i ended up confessing#but i ran away#and had my guyfriend talk to him#and he told my guyfriend that he didnt like me#and that he was only being sweet initially because hes like that w everyone#and i was fairly annoyed because... well we'd held hands and actually done a lot of shit which didnt count as just friends#but then he was like he didn't want to hurt me by giving me false hopes#so he distanced himself because he realised he was accidentally leading me on#and he's like i care for her that's why i chose to be distant#and all this my guyfriend told me#and tmr im supposed to talk to this guy whom i like#and honestly it feels like such a burden off my chest coz even if he doesnt like me#atleast i fINALLY know what was up w him#ok bye im done rambling thanku#pristine.txt

hi!!! ive been putting off sending this ask bc idk how to phrase it in the best way but … ive been trying to work on my drawing lately even tho the Voice that wants to give up bc im not immediately good at things is VERY strong !!! & i love your work so much + ive been taking a lot of inspo bc its kinda scribbly and pared-down but still really expressive + differentiated (i.e. im just saying its something i feel like i can try match the vibe of rather than like, a very detailed and refined thing?!?! absolutely not my intention to sound rude at all!!!) .
anyway very rambly but the main thing is ive been struggling a lot w figure+perspective+silhouettes and honestly everything so i was just wondering what ur process was like??? particularly bc ur style is more pared back but everything is so cohesive and all the perspective n posing is perfect. i’m curious sketching/planning is involved before a typical work you’d upload? and idk like……. how much technical skill + consideration goes into a drawing especially re: posing & perspective. just bc i feel like Such a Noob and like my eyes r literally wrong and nothing looks Right. im such a type A planner it just feels like maybe idk am i supposed to be educating myself on figure drawing and shading perspective first??!?! or do i just draw until it’s good?!?!?
idk man i create in a lot of different mediums and i feel super comfortable letting my writing be terrible before it’s good but w drawing the self-critique is SO difficult to ignore. thanku for what turned out to be a vent lol. but i would appreciate any insight! also i love your art ok bye
Hi! yeah great ask. I've been there. Live there, even. Here're two of my comfort hacks
1. Scribbles = Bonsai It can be real hard to know when you're 'done' with an illustration (or anything really) if you don't have a job for it. My doodles are 'done' to me if they have Character, Rhythm, & Balance. I stole that from a youtube doc about Bonsai.
2. Figures / Perspectives / Shading = Planning The Chunks These are kind of all the same thing - 'how am I using volume to say something.' I've found formal perspective stuff to be stifling. I work around it by making little marshmallow toothpick people and putting them in a diorama.
I like the diorama method because all I have to do is make far things lighter and close things darker. That's a lot of depth for very little effort and I'm on a budget.
If this helps y'all I'd love to hear about it 🍀
